It crawls...upside downOn the ceiling of my mind.Suddenly,it drops!In slow motionLike a drop of waterIn the little expanseOf a bucket of water.It drops,in slow motionRippling the water belowVibrating infinitesimallyThroughout my bodyMessing up my emotions.Then like a seedIt is planted in the soilOf my mind.It gently germinates stronglyWith roots graduallyFinding the routesTo the core of my being.Depression!Is setting in...My thoughts,Entangled in confusionMy actions crippled.My whole being in disarrayI am shackled from inside out.Then I startTo break down...I am deeply pressedFrom all sides.Then I begin to crawl,Upside downOn the ceiling of my mind...

[Inspired by losing about seven new poems and a poetry journal I documented on my laptop last month(April) and this month(May) which led to a near depressed state of mind.Written between 1229hrs and 1258hrs on Friday,18th May,2012]

These are sweet words
No bitter thoughts;
A duo...meant to move us
To positive attitude.

Just take a bite
Enough.
Lick these emotions,
Wrapped up in words
That will digest into your bloodstream.
Let it seduce your heart
As it's pumped in and out of it.
A seduction that reduces
Your intolerance
And induces the opposite

Just take a bite
Enough
Of this piece of alewa
That I share with you.
Take not an excess that will
Infect you with diabetes of inaction.
But action is the best insulin.

I speak of peace
Which is condiment
Of this candy.
Taste it
And let it be known
That you did.
Let the colour of you tongue
Be evidence of the peace you'll speak
And do.

Here
Take this piece of alewa
And let's colour this country
With the words we speak.
Hold up your piece of alewa
Hold it up for peace.
Speak of peace
And let's do peace.
